Never tell your wife how much better

The annual report Of Professor Baird,
of the Smithsonian Institution, discloses
the fact that the once numerous and
characteristic buffalo race has practi-
cally ceased 10 exist in the United States
SO rapid has been the rate of destruction
in the last few years that it is now al
most impossible, to procure specimens
Of this interesting class of animals for
preservation in the National Museum Of
Washington. Realizing the importance
of securing such specimens, Professor
Baird sent an expedition to the far West
last summer for that purpose; and al
though d number of skeletons and sk7ls
were found on the plains, il was with
great difficulty that one buffalo bull
was killed There are supposed to
be still few small and ramb' ing herds
in Northern Dakota, well up toward the
British possessions; but with this unin-
portant exception, the story of the
buffalo has reached its conclusion, and
the vast domain over which he once
roamed ~ millions is now entirely shorn
of MS familiar and typical presence.

Mnman,s Devotion.

A Despatch from Nashville, Tenn,
says;
eighteen years ago the doors of the
state prison closed upon Frank Riddle, of
Maury couEty, who had been sentenced
go life Imprisonment for Wandering Il
German peddler. There were doubts as
to the guilt of Riddle, who refusing TO
rcknowledg the crime and accept term
of fifteen years, insisted upon plea OF
rot guilty. The trial resulted in his con
viction, and the defendant appealed to
to the supreme court, which granted a
new hearing. A second verdict against
Riddle was rendered and he was sent TO
the penitenttary. Year after year passed.
one after another of the life convicts
died, and Riddle almost abandoned hope
OF obtaining his freedom.
While Governor TAYLOR was seated in
his office yesterday . woman walked into
the apartment and presented to che Gov
ernor petition for executive oiemency,
signed by the lessees and every officer or
the prison, who stated that Riddles long
incarceration had served the ends of
justice. Accompanying the petition was
a letter written by the woman who bore il.
After the governor had reaS the doeu-
ment the lady rose, and, addressing him,
said:
Governor Taylor, when that man was
accused of murder was engaged To be
married TO him, did not believe him
guilty and did not break the engagement
During the two or three years thrt the
trial was pending still believed in him.
During the eighteen years of his confine-
ment l stuck to him. His parents have
died. His brothers and sisters are al
dead except a sister who lives out west.
The people who were interested ia the
case then have forgotten him.

through all these long, weary years, and
want you to pardon him. ! DO not ask
you to think him an innocent man, but
for the sake of two lives that may yet be
happy ! implore you to set him free"
without waiting to hear the governors
decision she arose and left the Office and
the capitol.
When the governor had cleared his eyes
of tears he said to Bishop Cranberry
"Such devotion and constancy have new
err seen, and whatever Riddle may have de-
served, il does look as if that woman
ought to have a chance at happiness"
The prisoner will be pardoned.

AMAY WITH TWO MOUTHS.
He Can Drink for Hours Without Losing His
Breath.
Omaha Bee


Otto Depfor of st. Louis is at present
the only individual in Omaha with two
mouths. There are many people in Oma-
ha who have mouth enough for two, but
Otto claims the belt as the actual pos
sesor OF two orifces through which he
emits vocal sounds. Some time ago he
was struck by falling derrick, and his
throat was injured so that his windplpe
was closed at its upper end. skilful
surgical operation placed a silver tube in
the breath pipe, and he was saved from
actually dying for lack of air.
Subsequently the orifce to his mouth
and nostrils opened again, and Otto can
emit the fumes of his last drink into the
face of an appreciative but disgusted
companion from two holes at the same
time. He can also play a mouth organ
either way. 1t is extremely difficult to
appreciate to what extraordinary uses
Mr.. Depfor could not put kis peculiar
powers.
Az 4 permanent police whistle he could
be a screeching success. He could also
drain a schooner of beer without taking
breath" as most people are obliged to
take It,, because while the amber liquid
was gently and continuously gurgling
down one avenue the possesser of this
silver tube breathing apparatus would
be calmly INDUCING in his regular respi-
rations. There are great possibilities in
store for Mr.. Depfor

"Jesus Lover of My Soul" were sung by
these professionals with impressive effect,

gathered Oh the floor next above. When

TIE PETITION TO THE COUNCIL,

The numerously signed petition to the
City Council. published elsew where. is an in.
dorsement Of the proposition made by the
Butte Street Railroad Company t the
Council. which the latter cannot afford to
ignore. To extend their line to Burlington
and Meaderville will neceseitate the expen-
diture BY the company Of q great deal OF
money in grading alone. To recoup
Themselves for the money they will
have to lay out, . years fran
chiss 10 non too long. This
guarantee Of existence is an absolute
necessity to warrant the company in max.
ing the expenditure necessary. During this
years existence the company can demon
strate the immense public advantage to the
community OF their motors, and by that
time wen the most carping critic will be
convinced that the benefit to the public is
all that 10 now claimed for the
motor system. By that time, too,
the strangeness Of the machines
passing along the street will lave worn OF.
and the city teams become accustomed to
their presence. The business men on Park
street are a unit in favor OF the introduce
tion OF the steam motor, and naturally go.
"a the amount of additional trade brought
to them will show itself long before the
year is up. Under no circumstances can the
motors be q detri'nent to the community.
and the sooner the Council grant
the privilege asked for by the Street Rail-
road COMPANY, the sooner will the comnu-
nifty enjoy the ,unquestioned benefits to re-
suit from its use.

A CRYING EVIL.

Some stop must be put, and that
speedily, to the. indiscriminate sale OF
morphine by the drug stores of this city.
In four days two cases OF death from it's
use have been recorded by the papers here.
It is an undisRuised, openly acknowledged
fact that there are hundreds of women
here who are inveterate users ofthe drug
victims to the morphine habit, as it is
called. They become callous to the danger
arising from it's use, and are as thoroughly
it's slaves as the most inveterate drunkard
10 to the use OF alcohol. 1t is net claimed,
by any means, that Butte is exceptional by
reason of the presence OF these morphine
users, but it's sale in quantities sufficient to
sndanger human life upon anything else
than a physicians prescription assuredly
IL. The City Council should take this mat
ter into consideration without delay and
devise an ordinance that will put an effec-
tual stop to q means of suicide by the
passage OF q stringent law preventing the
sale OF the drug except to those who know
how to administer it to human beings in
